Patient Experience
I'd been to three other doctors about this constant fatigue and weird joint pain. Everyone said it was stress or just getting older. Dr. Harika Menti was the first one who actually listened to all the little details I mentioned, even the random rash I got last summer. She ordered a specific blood test no one else had, and it turned out to be something pretty rare. She explained it all in a way that finally made sense. I'm on treatment now and feel like myself again.
Had to get a small cyst removed from my back. Honestly, I was nervous about the whole thing—needles and all that. The procedure at Apollo was quicker than I expected. Dr. Menti talked me through each step as she did it, which really helped. It was over before I knew it, and the stitches were so neat you can barely see them now. Just a regular thing, but she made it feel like no big deal.
The parking situation at Apollo Health City that morning was a nightmare, I won't lie. But once I got inside, the whole place felt calm. The front desk lady found my file quickly even though I was flustered, and the nurse who took my vitals was really kind, asking about my kids. It made waiting a bit for my appointment with Dr. Menti much easier. The environment there really does help settle your nerves.
What stuck with me most about Dr. Menti is how she is in the room. She doesn't rush. She sits down, looks at you, and you feel like you have her full attention. When I was worried about some test results, she didn't just give me the numbers; she drew a little diagram on her notepad to show me what was probably happening. It felt like talking to a very smart, very calm friend who just happens to know everything about medicine.
